    California nails is one of the best nail shops I've ever been to. The attention to detail is amazing and I can't thank Kim enough for taking her time to make my nails look better than they have in years!!! I will be back over and over to this establishment!!! LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!

    Gel Nails done by Kim

    I love California Nails on Ann & Decatur. Kim is amazing. She takes the extra time needed to ensure you have the best experience. The salon is clean and they have every color of polish you can think of. My hands were done by Kim and my feet were done by Rosie. In love with both. Take time for yourself and relax at California Nails with the awesome massage chairs.

    I came here because my daughter receive a gift certificate to get a manicure done so then I decided to get a full set. I have never had a full set done under 45 minutes! EVER! But this man made it happen in that little time and his work reflects on my hands. My nails are shorter than I wanted, the shape isn't right, there's so much acrylic leftover inside the nail. Just overall sloppy. My daughter's experience was not good either. She told the lady she wanted a certain color with glitter on it and the lady used a completely different color. I told my daughter to not make it a big deal. I paid for the services but definitely didn't leave a tip. I will never come here again when there's a few in the area that do waaaay better work. Don't waste your time or money. (I had them done yesterday and they look a week old! See pic)

    I was referred to this place 2 years ago by a friend who has been going to Tina MANY years. Tina has always done such a wonderful job. Always willing to squeeze me in last minute. She's always up to date on the current colors and designs and even bringing to the table new designs others haven't event done yet. Her full sets run me 3 weeks easy before I need a fill even though many say a 2 week turn around is best. Her eyebrow arches are on point and I've officially converted back to waxing from threading. Anna is phenomenal when it comes to pedicures and gel nail manicures! Pounding the pavement and changing gloves with every patient in the hospital has my hands and feet looking up tamed and she gets them looking right again with no issue. Their prices are reasonable and their location is even in a nice area.

No offense Mya…read more I went in today on a whim with a last-minute appointment and lemme tell you -- Erin is to waxing as Jordan is to basketball. An absolute GOAT. She got every single hair -- and I mean EVERY single one -- which has only happened ONE other time in 15 years. Do you know how rare that is? I wasn't sure what to expect but she made the whole experience comfortable, professional, and funny -- I laughed more than I winced, and that's saying something when someone's ripping hair off your body. Book Erin. That's it. That's the review.

After checking in at the kiosk, I was notified there was a 0-minute wait time, only to sit there for 20 minutes before someone publicly called out, 'Who's Crystal?' and informed me that I was booked under 'first available' and that there were actually no appointments available. The biggest issue wasn't just the wait, but the lack of professionalism and communication throughout the process. I typically enjoy coming to this establishment and have generally had positive experiences, which is why this interaction was especially frustrating and inconvenient.

I'm always a little self-conscious and awkward going into these appointments, but she was so professional, patient, and genuinely calming the entire time. She really made the experience feel comfortable and judgment-free. I got the Brazilian Wax with Extra Care for $75 (a 20-minute service), and honestly... the extra care was a game changer. I have sensitive skin, and the cooling products helped so much. Even though there are inevitably painful moments, Stephanie was gentle, efficient, and quick -- which made a huge difference. 10/10 experience. If you've been putting it off like I was, this is your sign to book. Definitely recommend checking them out.

I guess everyone needed clean cochies for the summer time haha When I tried making a phone appointment, I received a text message back instructing me to book the appt on Booksy. Ok fast forward to today. I made the appt two weeks ago and I received a text message yesterday to confirm. So I arrive at the address given but I'm not sure which salon it is and which room it was in. I looked on yelp, Groupon and google. No luck. I called the 702 number on file and apparently she's in the process of using another number. I didn't get all the numbers the on the first go so I had to call back to get the rest of the numbers. I had to leave a message and a minute later I received a text saying that she's in Rain salon and she's in room 129. I went inside and Taelyr met me at the door. She thought I was a returning customer so she didn't send me detailed info. No biggie. Her room is spacious, clean and white. She gave me a baby wipe to freshen up and started my wax. She was friendly, down to earth and we talked about a few things. She was sweet and pretty gentle. She even used the tweezers for some stray hairs. I appreciate when that's done bcs they are detailed orientated and I like it when there's no hairs, less work for me to do when I get home.
